Important Notice Re: Cooliris AntiVirus Warning

By Jeff on December 04, 2009 in Cooliris, General.

Thank you to all of the users that have notified us regarding a recent notification they have been receiving from their Anti Virus software.

Users are reporting that certain programs are identifying Cooliris as providing information that contains a “Recognition pattern of the HTML/Infected.WebPage.Gen HTML script virus”.

We want to assure you that Cooliris has not been infected with a script virus, nor have we changed our program to trigger this type of notification.

We are working with the anti virus software companies to work on this issue – it is likely that a change was made to their code that incorrectly started identifying Cooliris as a potential threat.

If you happen to receive this message, you may simply choose to “Allow” Cooliris the access that your anti virus program is attempting to block. Nothing has changed about the Cooliris that you know and love that would make choosing this option harmful in the least.

Thank you for your understanding, and for keeping us aware of issues like these.
